My first reaction to seeing The Last Jedi. This post is spoiler free! Full review coming soon.

Opening day of Star Wars The Last Jedi and there I am standing at the gates of the theatre waiting for them to open so I can experience a movie two years in the making. With so much anticipation surrounding this movie I could not wait, and I can safely say The Last Jedi does not disappoint.

For people who think that The Force Awakens is just a rehash of A New Hope, will have nothing to complain in that regard when viewing The Last Jedi. This may be the most unexpected Star Wars movie ever made. So much of the story and character development took me by surprise, taking the movie in a direction I could not even imagine.

Rian Johnson did something amazing with The Last Jedi, creating a movie that feels like something we have never seen before while at the same time it still feels like Star Wars. I may not agree with every choice he made in the film but he has definitely created something special that left me smiling like a child at several points in the movie.

I cannot wait to see it again.
